- Hellman109, on 05/14/2008, -3/+272So in effect they sodimised him, sexually assaulted him, drugged him against his will (not sure what the laws in the US are, but we have them as anti-date rape laws) and tortured (depending on how he was forced to vomit).
Whats the bet nothing comes of it though? - brutalentropy, on 05/14/2008, -4/+263I'm not even shocked anymore when I read articles like this. That frightens me.
- chdodd2012, on 05/14/2008, -4/+171"It's not profiling," Burke said. "We look for indicators."
I'm guessing their indicator was being black. - blackolive, on 05/14/2008, -1/+143"The following month, Clement received a $6,792 bill from Albany Med for the procedures."
I'm speechless. - lucidguru, on 05/14/2008, -2/+130"Doctors forcibly sedated him with a cocktail of powerful drugs"... they did this so that they could search for drugs? WTF Hypocritical!
I'm guessing they used Lorazepam or some other benzodiazepine drug to sedate this dude... incidentally had this man been "possessing" this drug he would have been arrested and found guilty. - johndi, on 05/14/2008, -1/+115The pricks who violated him are trying to bill him for it.
"The following month, Clement received a $6,792 bill from Albany Med for the procedures." - Divals, on 05/14/2008, -3/+111Cops get a free pass on this kind of thing, they're protecting our security.
/sarcasm - wynja, on 05/14/2008, -14/+115***** the police state. Where's my 50 cal?!?!
- Sil369, on 05/14/2008, -2/+68They're training for Gitmo.
- ileftfark, on 05/14/2008, -2/+59"He got all that? For FREE?" - Larry Craig.
- niczar, on 05/14/2008, -0/+52You forgot the part where he gets billed $6792. That's what makes this police brutality story stand out amongst the dozens already occuring in the USSA.
- MikeSD34, on 05/14/2008, -2/+46"At least buy me dinner first, christ."
- SniperGX1, on 05/14/2008, -0/+40The drug dealers weren't the ones sexually assaulting someone
- Mongo61, on 05/14/2008, -0/+40How can the hospital bill the guy if he didn't sign a medical consent form first? Isn't that an instant lawsuit?
Did somebody forge it? WTF? The article doesn't explain. - PhilLesh69, on 05/14/2008, -1/+43I think we should do this to ever citizen, that way we can prevent crime.
In fact, I think the only way to make us safe is to put everyone under house arrest, and only allow them to leave their homes to go to work.
If they want to go to a doctor, or buy food, they will have to submit a request to the local party leader, in triplicate, and a wait 2 weeks for a full background check to clear them in order for them to be able to buy food or see the doctor. All other travel outside the home should be banned.
If people just sit at home and watch the approved media, we'll be a much safer society.
Stupid people might even think my exaggerated sarcasm makes sense. Especially the people who ***** their pants on 9/11. - codered1322, on 05/14/2008, -1/+39How could doctors and nurses willingly go along with this. That seems like a serious violation of ethics. Just because a third tier cop in a uniform flashes a badge does not mean you should inflict something like that on a human being.
- lhbaker, on 05/14/2008, -10/+49I was initially shocked, as any decent Liberal should be. But when I Google this story, I get nothing but articles that link back to this one; in other words, not a single news outlet has reported it. Bury me for due diligence, but I smell a rat.
- SpectreFire, on 05/14/2008, -0/+31I assumed they found the drugs though.
"Hey! This guy's lot loads of powerful sedatives!"
*high fives all around* - PATSCRU, on 05/14/2008, -13/+41how could something so wrong feel so right?
- lhbaker, on 05/14/2008, -3/+32Committing a crime doesn't mean you forfeit your human rights. Sure, you can't vote, but you're still can't be raped by the state.
- blackolive, on 05/14/2008, -2/+28Maybe it wasn't mentioned more because it happens all the time? They do this to suspected drug carriers to "protect them" from the drugs inside them:
"prisoners or people under arrest can be forcibly sedated without a court order if they are in imminent danger, such as when a bag of drugs bursts open inside them and they begin to have a seizure or fall unconscious. But the hospital's records indicate Clement was behaving normally and showed no signs of any medical emergency."

Besides, this newspaper mentioned this story several times, it's a big newspaper in the state capital, a senior writer. It all adds up to me. - ObamaWins08, on 05/14/2008, -2/+29Small price to pay for Freedom... aslong as your butt is the one writing the checks.
- moofer, on 05/14/2008, -1/+26Kinda surprised they didn't taser him first.
- shredluc, on 05/14/2008, -0/+23Maybe you should lead by example and go dangle.
- Matri, on 05/14/2008, -0/+26I am more outraged by the doctor(s) that performed this. Even the hospital records show that he was behaving fine and was in no danger, AND he personally refused the "treatment" AND did not sign the consent form.
What kind of quack did they go to? - BoneheadFarker, on 05/14/2008, -3/+26Exactly what kind of porn are you watching???
Wait, maybe I don't want to know this information... - kevro, on 05/14/2008, -1/+24If anybody deserves a multi million dollar lawsuit it's this guy. Why didn't they Just x-ray him? you can at least walk away form that one.....so to speak.
- rberk72, on 05/14/2008, -0/+21We've got government up the ass ...
- purpledoc, on 05/14/2008, -1/+21Be a doc and you can give someone a colonoscopy if they want one.
Be a cop and you can give someone a colonoscopy regardless if they want one. - alittleroy101, on 05/14/2008, -1/+22That's the kind of thing that pushes people to buy a couple 70 round drums, lock and load, and go on a rampage.
- HopeMonger, on 05/14/2008, -2/+23Wow Bummer
- publiclurker, on 05/14/2008, -7/+27Oh, please, the moment they though your strap on manhood was any threat, they would pump you full of a lot more than just drugs.
- gernblansted, on 05/14/2008, -0/+20If they want them to forget, they give them Versed (Midazolam Hydrochloride). This is a staple in surgical procedures in the US today. If a patient starts to rouse or wake up at the "wrong time", versed will make them forget anything they experienced. It is both common and standard procedure, and available at almost any hospital in the United States.
- PhilLesh69, on 05/14/2008, -0/+19We should have our cops administer 7 shots of jim beam to DUI suspects before giving them the field sobriety test, too.
- Jambi, on 05/14/2008, -7/+269-11. What, that makes no sense? It doesn't matter. 9-11, 9-11, Islam, "hates our freedom", "sig heil" (whoops, how'd that get in there?), reaganomics, 9-11, freedom fries, Iran.
- inactive, on 05/14/2008, -0/+18Bend over and spread 'em ... just to be sure.
If you're innocent you should have nothing to hide. - MikeSD34, on 05/14/2008, -0/+17Don't write checks your ass can't cash. You know, unless you're into that sort of thing.
- NikoK, on 05/14/2008, -1/+19The police force is definitely going to have a giant lawsuit up their asses.
- krnldmp, on 05/14/2008, -3/+19Classic piggery.
- flashback99, on 05/14/2008, -0/+17Now I understand why Americans carry guns. To protect themselves from the police!
- bitterbug, on 05/14/2008, -1/+16If you stopped every white guy driving through a neighborhood I'd imagine there'd be a few criminals in there too. Except I don't know of any cops that stop people and interrogate them for "driving while white".
- TobiasParker, on 05/14/2008, -0/+15Albany police are like CRASH man, i know i live there.
- dienamite, on 05/14/2008, -3/+18In the butt.
- smotpoker, on 05/14/2008, -0/+17Perhaps if police hadn't been persecuting them unjustly for decades, or the rest of the public hadn't conveniently ignored said persecution the entire time, more black people would have realized there really was an option (had it existed) to be legitimately successful without abandoning their culture/family/friends.
More black people do not become criminals because they imagine racism/injustice but because they experience it consistently (in some fashion) and become embittered. - PhilLesh69, on 05/14/2008, -2/+18***** the police state, how can I get all the sheep to stop voting for it?
- thenewkasanova, on 05/14/2008, -5/+19Lmao...funniest thing I've heard all day.
- Marshalrusty, on 05/14/2008, -0/+14I think you are very confused.
